Exhibition Announcement

In Hidden in the Folds, the archive is not a place—but a practice, a choreography of classification, erasure, and desire. The exhibition gathers a series of encounters with the archive—through objects, fragments, systems, and stories half-told. Each work engages a different material: a chair traced through exile, a bureaucratic note filed under another name, a stilled and reclassified social media feed, silk threads spun in confinement. What binds them is not a single theme, but a shared condition: of having passed through structures of classification, access, and institutional logic. Across posters, data visualizations, images, and speculative reconstructions, the archive appears both as apparatus and enigma. These works offer no closure only a space to consider how meaning is organized, withheld, or left to unfold between object and metadata, presence and disappearance.
